Miley Cyrus and Dolly Parton's Voices Blended Gorgeously While Covering 'Jolene'
It was a night to remember.
Miley Cyrus knows how to throw a party, and her festive flair was in full force for the Miley’s New Year's Eve Party special on NBC, co-hosted by none other than the gloriously glamorous Dolly Parton.
The night was packed full of jaw-dropping musical performances, with Cyrus calling in an outstanding lineup of talent, including Latto, FLETCHER, Rae Sremmurd, and Sia (to name just a few). But the entertainment didn't end there: Saturday Night Live side-splitters Chloe Fineman and Sarah Sherman also stopped by to give NBC audiences a few laughs, joined by the digital short savants Please Don’t Destroy.
With a star-studded lineup like that ringing in the new year, it's safe to say that 2023 began on a high note. But lest we forget that Cyrus and Parton, everyone's favorite godmother-daughter duo, were the fierce forces behind the fantastic celebration. Let's look back at Cyrus and Parton's legendary performances from the night.
